Top Oven/Grill Cookery Notes

15

Top Oven as a

Plates  and  dishes  placed  on  the  floor  of  the  top  oven  will  be  heated

Hotcupboard 

when  the  main  oven  is  in  use.  When  the  main  oven  is  not  in  use  (for
instance  when  a  meal  is  being  cooked  on  the  hob)  place  the  plates
and  serving  dishes  on  the  rod  shelf  using  the  bottom  runner,  and  turn
the  top  oven  control  to  approximately  100°C  (200°F).  A  maximum
time  of  10-12  minutes  is  all  that  is  required  to  heat  the  plates  and
dishes.

CAUTION: 

Accessible  parts  may  become  hot  when  the  grill  is  in

use. Children should be kept away.

Grilling  

GRILLING SHOULD NOT BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THE GRILL/TOP OVEN 
DOOR CLOSED.
Never line the grill pan with aluminium foil.

The grill control is designed to provide variable heat control of the grill 
element. Please note that the grill will not operate unless the top oven 
control is in the 

OFF

position.

Open the top oven/grill door, preheat the grill at 6 setting for 
approximately 5 minutes. When toasting the rod shelf is placed in the top 
runner. Position the pan centrally below the grill element.
Leave the control at 6 for toast, sealing and fast cooking of foods. For 
thicker cuts requiring longer cooking, turn the control to a lower setting 
after the initial sealing on both sides at 6. The thicker the food the lower 
the control should be set.
See chart on guide to grilling.

Remember

to switch off the grill control at the end of cooking.

Grill Pan Handle

The  grill  pan  handle  is  detachable  from  the  pan  to  facilitate  cleaning
and  storage.  The  handle  can  be  either  detachable  from  or  fixed  to
the  pan.  For  a  fixed  handle  remove  the  screw  and  washers  from  the
grill  pan  bracket,  tilt  the  handle  over  the  recess  adjacent  to  the
bracket,  slide  it  towards  the  centre  of  the  pan  and  let  the  handle
locate  over  the  bracket.  Replace  screw  and  washers  and  ensure  that
they  are  fully  tightened  up.  For  a  detachable  handle  remove  screw
and washers from the grill pan and retain for future use.
Please  note,  if  a  fixed  handle  is  required,  grill  pan  is  unable  to  be
kept  in  the  Main  Oven  with  door  closed.  It  may  be  stored  in  the
Top Oven with door closed.
